What Is The Event Details Section And Why Do I Need To Provide These Details?

This article is for our new Experience Manager.

If you are an EventMobi customer and using manage.eventmobi.com your account is using our Classic Content Manager. If this is the case, please visit support.eventmobi.com

The Event Details area is the first thing you'll see when you access the Experience Manager for your event. This is where you can enter or edit the basic information for your event including the Event Name, Event App URL and your Event Dates.

Within this area you will also have access to establish basic details along with, Email (for system generated emails, and your Help Desk if applicable), EventDates, and the EventLocation.

Basic Details

Event Name - This will be automatically populated with the name you provide when you have us setup your account. You can edit this field to rename your event. This name will appear in places like your loading screens and the top of the left hand app menu within the app.

Event Short Name- This is the URL link that will be used to access your site in the format of eventmobi.com/ShortName. Your short name is the unique identifier that appears after the EventMobi domain. If you would like to change your short name you will need to contact support for them to process this request.
